LOL, thanks... Actually I don't really have that many problems with stuff like this... just for some reason I did this time.

Well it's all back together and it seems to be ok. I took it for a little drive and it was smoking A LOT in the engine bay but I think it's just the PB blaster burning off. It didn't smell like oil at all. Just glad it's all finished.

you should go in and wipe off any extra PB blaster. That stuff is extremely flamable...

Glad to hear you got it all back together though.

Yeah I tried but I cant get all of it. It's all burned off for the most part now. I let it idle up to temp and it just sat there smoking for a bit then went and drove it for 2 miles got back and there was barely any smoke left.
